Guerilla’s Killzone 2 has now sold more than one million copies worldwide since its release at the end of February. It’s an important sales milestone for the incredibly polished shooter, but the numbers are at odds with pre-release claims that the game had received 1.1m pre-orders in Europe.

A statement from the company read: “SCEA is staged for yet another breakout fiscal year with a broad range of highly anticipated PS3 exclusives, including inFamous, Uncharted 2: Among Thieves, MAG, Heavy Rain, God of War III, and Rachet & Clank Future: A Crack in Time.”
